Reproduction:

1. M-x list-packages
2. Press x on a line
3. Observer in the echo area package.el is now asking the user to
whether to install the package.

Expectation:

If the user has not pressed i to select the package for installation,
package.el should not ask the user to confirm anything. There's no
action to execute. This is unexpected dwim behavior.
